KLM’s New A321neo: A Surprising Upgrade

Nearly a year ago KLM took delivery of their first Airbus A321neos. These aircraft will be the backbone of the KLM European fleet, replacing all the Boeing 737s. KLM currently fly the -700,-800 and -900 variant. They will all eventually be phased out and replaced. This is currently an ongoing process. Most of the 737-700s are already gone, with only 6 remaining. As a big fan of the 737s it's a sad sight seeing all of them disappearing slowly.

I took this flight to see how the A321neo actually is and do a proper review on it. I must say I am pleasantly surprised. The aircraft is very spacious and comfortable. the seats are good although, KLM have went for profit over comfort in the rear of the aircraft with less legroom than the 737s. Despite that the A321neo is really good, quiet and modern. I will miss seeing the 737s but I look forward to seeing what the future holds for KLM and their A320neo family.
